Taara is Google, just saying.

Maybe they should also ban lobbying by Google, Microsoft etc.

And it costs innocent people their lives or makes it at least very miserable. Yeah, what to spend billions for…

Use uMatrix and see more sewage

Let’s poke the bubble.

Does anybody care about people in Yemen? Such a fuzz about a stupid group chat while the big story could also be the airstrike and murder of people. What happened in Yemen?

There’s nothing stopping you from using GPL.

But there is a culture - I think even explicit - of using MIT or APACHE licensing. In some sense is okay, because it simplifies crate compatibility. But it comes at the cost of feeding the usual suspects who now obviously turn against humanity.

My unconfirmed suspicion is that there are forces behind (Google, Microsoft, Amazon, Meta) who like permissive licenses because this makes it easier for them to exploit the work of the public.

Always have some chewing gum ready. (I would advise for cyanoacrylate but that’s illegal in some places because you could use it to stick yourself to the road as a form of protest)

A pity this article does not give any link to sources…

It seems a scary move but at some point you have to do what is right and not what is easy.

Please panic. There’s Librewolf. A deshittified Firefox fork. Would be great to support that project.

Windows also used to show me the ugly face of Trump in the start menu even if I didn’t ask for it. That was more than 4 years ago. Recently was accidentally hovering over some ‘copilot’ button in Edge of a friend. And again - pop-up with Trump. So yes: fuck Windows, fuck Microsoft

I bet that what we see here is partly the work of the worlds largest propaganda machine. I’d like to believe that misinformation was the reason for them supporting Trump. So yes, properly informing people could help. But I’m worried that the Trumpian shit-show clogged some brains. What to believe in a world made of “fake news”?

I simply wonder what’s happening and expressing my frustration.

No question - it’s good he is mobilizing people. Organization is key, and to me it looks like it’s currently lacking. I really hope Sanders can change this.

It has been damn obvious and yet way too many people voted Trump. And, come on, it was clear Elon would be there as well. From outside the US it’s hard to understand why. It leaves me with two explanations, both of which I don’t like: either people were misinformed and/or did not understand what is going on, or they did really want it.

Maybe you can help me understand.

Wasn’t that obvious at very latest 4 years ago?

We need such statements now more than ever. Thank you Codeberg <3

Non-jewish people should follow. Musk is bad for 99% of us.

Would be nice to have some sort of content warning for his face.
